6. If you are removing the DIMM as part of replacing a controller, return to step

Installing the DIMM
With the controller removed from the chassis and the battery removed from the
controller, complete the following steps to install the DIMM in the controller:
1. Make sure that at least 60 seconds has elapsed since you removed the battery
from the controller.
2. Open the retaining clip on each end of the DIMM connector.
3. Touch the static-protective package that contains the DIMM to any unpainted
metal surface on the DS3200. Then, remove the DIMM from the package.
4. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with the slot.
5. Match the angle of the DIMM with the angle of the connector.
6. Firmly press the DIMM into the connector. The retaining clips snap into the
locked position when the DIMM is firmly seated in the connector. If there is a
gap between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been correctly
inserted; open the retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and then reinsert it.
